  • Chardstock Baptisms to 1879
    CHARDSTOCK ST. ANDREWS CHURCH - BAPTISMS Source: Chardstock Parish Registers and Bishop’s Transcripts Dates: 1579 to 1582 from Bishop’s Transcripts 1597 to 1846 transcripts from Parish Registers, except periods March 1707 to April 1713, July 1713 to August 1714 and August 1714 to June 1716 for which no records are available. 1847 to 1879 transcripts have been taken from photocopies of the Bishop’s Transcripts of the Chardstock Parish Registers, held in Wiltshire Records Office. Where these were unclear, they have been checked against microfiches of the originals, held in Devon Records Office, and altered as appropriate. There are a number of inconsistencies between the two versions; for instance Susan Cozins in the Bishop’s Transcript appears as Susan Cousins in the Parish Register. The Wiltshire records for years 1850, 1856, 1858 1862, 1864, 1865, 1868, 1871, 1873 and 1876 are missing, either because they were not copied originally or because they have been lost. These gaps have been made good from the Devon Records Office, and are included within this transcript. Both Parish Registers and Bishop’s Transcripts are given for the years 1847, 1848, 1849 and 1850. The researcher is strongly advised to consult the original copies at Wiltshire or Devon Record Office, and use these transcriptions only as a guide to what these sources contain. When using this site, the following points should also be borne in mind: Abbreviations have been avoided wherever possible and full stops have not been used in names, thus Wm C. Watts in the register appears as William C Watts. This measure is designed to assist word search software programmes.

    Ward Yarty Reference 20/0375/FUL Applicant Mrs Gill Keam Location Fordings Chardstock Axminster EX13 7BW Proposal Construction of pitch roof and dormer window to existing garage for the conversion and provision of ancillary living accommodation. RECOMMENDATION: Approval with conditions Crown Copyright and database rights 2020 Ordnance Survey 100023746 Committee Date: 4th November 2020 Yarty Target Date: (Chardstock) 20/0375/FUL 12.06.2020 Applicant: Mrs Gill Keam Location: Fordings Chardstock Proposal: Construction of pitch roof and dormer window to existing garage for the conversion and provision of ancillary living accommodation. RECOMMENDATION: Approval with conditions EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This application has been referred to Committee following a Chairman’s Delegation meeting so that Members can consider the impacts from the ancillary accommodation on the area. The application proposes the conversion and upward extension of an existing garage to form ancillary living accommodation. The application does not propose a separate dwelling and if consent were granted, planning permission would be required for the building to be used as a dwelling independent of the Fordings. The site lies with the AONB, adjoins the Conservation Area and is adjacent to two listed buildings. The applicant is not required to demonstrate a need for the extension or to justify its size (although they have advised it is to enable the applicant to care for an elderly parent), and it is for Members to consider the physical and visual impact from the extension that represents additional living accommodation for the main house, albeit in a detached form. The main impacts are from the addition of the roof, dormer window and changes to the appearance of the garage.

  • Bishops Hull
    © University of London 2019 Text by Mary Siraut, Victoria County History, Somerset BISHOPS HULL Before the mid 19th century the ancient parish of Bishops Hull was not only a rural parish west of Taunton including the village of Bishops Hull, the large hamlet of Rumwell, the smaller hamlets of Fideoak, with Upcott and Barr, and Roughmoor and a few isolated farms and mills along the river but also the area of west Taunton roughly bounded by the Tone as far east as and including the Town Mills, the east and south walls of the castle precinct, the road to Wilton with an extension along the west side of Cann Street as far as Shuttern and the Sherford stream on the south west. Only on the north west did this urban enclave adjoin the rest of the parish. The area probably formed part of the original settlement of Taunton comprising the minster, cemeteries and possibly a royal hall. It was presumably transferred to Bishops Hull about the time of the construction of the castle in the 11th century possibly to keep the castle outside the borough although Wilton was closer.1 Taunton Castle and its outer precinct, now called Castle Green, the areas later known as Tangier and Stepswater, and St Paul’s medieval chapel and its surroundings were all in Bishops Hull parish. By the post- medieval period if not before that caused difficulties. In 1757 for example concern was expressed that troops had been billeted in bad houses in distant parts of the parish as well as in the Taunton area as intended.2 Although not formally constituted as a separate parish until 1885 it was rated separately by the 1840s when it was known as the Town Division as opposed to the main part of the parish called the Country Division.3 The town area until the 1880s was bounded by the river Tone on the north, Mill Lane and the outer ditch or moat of the castle on the east and south-east.

  • Axminster's 'Natural Hinterland': Parishes, Villages and Hamlets
    Axminster’s ‘Natural Hinterland’: Parishes, Villages and Hamlets Introduction Axminster is not only a market town with a very long history in its own right; it is both a civil parish and an ecclesiastical one (the two entities now cover largely, but not precisely, the same geographical area, but the boundaries have frequently been changed over time). Its strategic location is based on two geographical ‘facts on the ground’: the town overlooks the confluence of the Axe and the Yarty rivers, some 5 miles from the sea; and it sits at the junction of the ancient ‘Portway’ trade route and the Roman Fosse Way1. As the population density grew, these facts made it a natural focus for surrounding settlements, and in 1204 King John granted the Lord of the Manor the right to hold regular markets at Axminster. The question then arises: how far does this ‘natural hinterland’ spread? This map, from the 1950s, represents an area measuring about 16km (or 10 miles) from south to north (from Beer to Stockland), and about 13km (or 8 miles) from west to east (from Stockland to Forde Abbey). 1 There is scope for debate as to whether the Roman road which passes through Axminster formed part of the Fosse Way itself, or was simply one of several ‘feeder’ roads which joined the Fosse Way to the north of Chard. © Axminster Heritage Ltd.
